The only thing I’m really questioning is the removal of the Archos devices. I’m sure if this is legit then there are reasons for it, but those devices essentially started the entire Rockbox project.

Today is still 4/1, so I’m going to wait until at least tomorrow before I form an opinion on this.

Well now I can’t unhear that, thanks.

Me too.

My coworker is an air force vet. I just told him, with zero context, “it wasn’t the war thunder forums this time”. He closed his eyes and shook his head, then went back to what he was doing.

Because these characters aren’t built the same as old games. That was part of the magic of older games, using as few resources as possible but cleverly cutting the spirit into easily manipulated bit maps that can be flipped and rotated as necessary to animate the character.

These are overly detailed and missing the CRT effect.

Fuck Teams, all my homies hate Teams

Is that even still used for medical purposes?

Uh, yeah… Very much so. Pretty much every family has a bottle of it hanging around somewhere.

Yeah, Pebble watches have a pretty loyal fanbase (including myself), and the r/pebble subreddit has been active for years despite the fact that they’ve been defunct for almost a decade. Google open-sourced the OS in January, Eric made announcements about creating a new company to make new PebbleOS-based watches, then yesterday his website (link in this post) started a countdown.

Now here we are.

I’m going to wait and see how these new watches fare in terms of reliability. I wasn’t a fan of the Pebble 2 and it’s issues, but that’s supposedly been resolved. These new units use essentially the same design, but with better materials and reinforcements.

This isn’t Pebble, Google owns that. This is Eric’s new company, Core Devices, the spiritual successor to Pebble.

Yes, but the average person doesn’t give a shit about the technical definition. You know what is meant, don’t be pedantic about it.

Freeware = Free software

Technically true.

I’m in 23 different discord servers. Tech, hacking, DIY, cars, music, etc.

As someone who is likely going to be stuck renting for the foreseeable future, I agree. I’ll happily pay my deposit to some sort of escrow that the landlord has zero access to until it’s proven by a neutral third party, with no financial interest in the property, who has seen the property before and after renting.

That universe already exists in iCarly

This is…mildly…disconcerting…

No issues for me

Pranks are only funny when everybody is laughing.

Don’t even bother, gatekeepers gonna gatekeep

I took the bus for those distances several times when in college.
